Micheel M. says, "Ken is an exceptional instructor. His style makes you think about your artistic objective and then fills in the blanks with instructions on technique and methods. His lessons are very customized to your skill level. He breaks everything into simple steps. I have been a photographer since childhood and a had solid knowledge of composition and technique but I lacked knowledge of lighting and studio setup. His understanding of lighting and setup is fantastic and only after about 4-5 lessons I feel confident in actually charging for my headshot and product photography work. Ken is a great investment in your photography career or in simply becoming a better artist! I always look forward to the next lesson." Read more

I prefer a very hands on and low pressure learning experience for students. Knowledge is something to be shared and passed on to others. Fun is the key factor in learning anything. I really enjoy helping others learn and fulfull their potential. I have been fortunate to have learned from some very skilled and talented people over my 30+ years of being a working professional photographer.

I love what I do Nelson J. Sanders Nelson J. Sanders Grew up in the photography business. His father Nelson Sr. gave him his first 35mm camera when he was just five years old. From that moment forward, Nelson has always had photography in his blood. The first of six children, Nelson always knew he wanted to follow in his dad's footsteps. ‍ At just Ten years old, Nelson was printing Black and White photographs in his Dad's photographic Lab. Not only was he processing his own film, and printing his own pictures, Nelson was also printing for his dad's company. Soon after that Nelson started printing color, retouching, mounting, and soon going ...

I can teach anyone the bare bones basics of photography and camera operation. With a solid understanding of the exposure triangle anyone can take a professional looking photograph. Things like composition or lens selection are important, but understanding the basic way to manually manipulate your camera in my opinion, is a crucial step one.

I can teach art and make it fun. I've been an art counselor for the Boys and Girls Club. I also taught my son a good deal about art - without any prerequisite other than the drawing he did his first day in basic art, he was enrolled in AP Art the next day. He won several awards and his art was selected as a feature for his yearbook, and he won a County Scholastic Art Competition! The main thing about teaching art is to keep it FUN.

Your Photography Lessons questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.com.

How much do photography classes cost?

Photography classes cost $80 to $300 at a local photography center, museum, or online course provider. A beginner photography course at a university costs $250 to $500+, while the cost for a photography degree program is $10,000 to $30,000 per year on average.

Prices depend on the type of class, skill level, and your location. A basic Introduction to Photography class typically costs less than advanced classes or workshops taught by an experienced photographer.

Why take photography classes, and are they worth it?

A photography class is worth it if you want to master your camera, learn new techniques, and gain the ability to capture moments in exciting, memorable images. You do not need to be an aspiring professional photographer or artist to benefit from a class.

You'll learn to observe the world around you in new ways and develop an eye for details, light, color, shape, and texture. Through expert feedback from the instructor, you'll identify areas where you need improvement and become a better photographer as a result.

What do you learn in a photography class?

A beginner photography class teaches basic camera skills and techniques, including:

  • The exposure triangle—aperture, shutter speed, and ISO—and how each setting affects motion, depth of focus, and noise in your images
  • Light and how it affects your photos
  • Composition techniques, the Rule of Thirds, and leading lines
  • Color, shape, and texture
  • White balance
  • Lenses and filters

More advanced photography classes teach post-processing techniques in Photoshop, Lightroom, or other similar photo editing programs. Post-processing techniques include color correction, retouching, adjusting contrast and sharpness, and more.

Advanced courses may also focus on a specific type of photography, such as landscape photography, portrait photography, or street photography

Do I need my own camera to take a photography class?

Most photography classes require you to bring your own camera. However, if you're interested in exploring photography before investing in your own camera gear, consider taking a class anyway. Whether you take photos with your cellphone or a high-end digital camera, you can benefit from the skills learned in the class.

During the class, you'll learn not just how to take great photos but also about the features you'd like in a more complex camera, as well as the best lenses and filters for the type of photography you're interested in. This knowledge will better prepare you for the expensive purchase.

Can you take photography classes online?

Yes, you can take photography classes online through universities, web course providers like CreativeLive and SkillShare, and a wide variety of websites dedicated specifically to photography. Most sites offer both beginner photography classes and a vast selection of intermediate and advanced classes focused on specific types or aspects of photography.

Where can I take photography classes near me?

Keep these tips in mind when choosing a photography class:

  • Look for a course targeted toward photographers at your skill level. Advanced photographers may want to consider taking a workshop with a specific photographer instead of a class.
  • Decide if you want to take a class that focuses on a specific style or type of photography.
  • Read the instructor's reviews on Lessons and Google.
  • Check out the instructor's portfolio, as well as portfolios from previous students.

What questions should I ask photography instructors?

Ask the instructor these questions before enrolling in the class:

  • What skill level is this class designed for?
  • What topics will the class cover?
  • Do I need to bring my own camera?
  • Where will the class meet?
  • Will the class include instructor feedback?
  • Will you share our photos on the school website or social media?
